Can also confirm this bug on eeepc 701 4GB SSD.  Only happens to me
after a resume from suspend.  If I restart, the message goes away.  No
noticeable "damage".  Files are fine, performance is top notch.

[Bug 215484] Re: g-p-m does not honor its configuration for LCD brightness levels after multiple unplug-replug from AC

2009-02-22 Thread BandD
I noticed sometime last week that gpm was not correctly setting the
original brightness again after resuming from idle.  After looking into
it I realized that a new version of gpm had shipped with a round of
updates.  So I went back to Paulo Silva's patched version and everything
is back in order.

Why was Paulo's patch not included in this new updated gpm version?

[Bug 254816] [NEW] F-spot rotate photo results in corrupted file

2008-08-04 Thread BandD
Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: f-spot

I'm using f-spot with Hardy Heron 8.04.  I came across a rather
concerning bug.  If I rotate an image (either left or right) and do some
other action before the rotation has finished, it results in a corrupted
file.  After the attempted rotate If I try to open the image in GIMP it
says that the file ends prematurely.  The image will load, but only the
pixels through where the rotation had completed now exist.

This is not a constant phenomenon, however.  Usually the rotate feature
happens very quickly.  But in some circumstances (i.e with a very large
photo and/or heavy system load) the rotation takes longer than expected
and if you try to do something else (namely rotate another image) it
ends the first rotation prematurely, effectively rotating only half of
the image and corrupting the rest.   As long as you let the second
rotation finish, the second image is fine.

F-spot should either not allow another action until the rotation is
completed, or should triage the commands it receives more effectively.
Finishing a current process before starting another.

Paulo,

I'm sorry.  It happened only one day--though consistently that day--and I
have not been able to reproduce this bug since.  Everything seems to be

2008-06-29 Thread BandD
Paulo,

I may have found another 'bug'.  I've noticed that when when the
screensaver (for me blank screen) is activated using your patched
version of gpm and deactivate the screensaver (through mouse movement or
keystroke), my screen brightness is stuck at the 'dimmed' screen
brightness and I have to manually adjust the screen brightness back to
100% with the brightness applet.  After that dim on and off works fine.
It is just when resuming from the screensaver.

Also, sometimes when resuming from suspend I get the same behavior, but
not always.

2008-06-22 Thread BandD
Ok.  The new patch works perfectly for me when setting the idle/active
brightness!  Nice work there!

I'm still having problems with the battery/ac though.  But it I don't
know that it is a problem with YOUR patch--perhaps gpm in general or
ACPI.  I had this problem with the Ubuntu's version of gpm in Hardy
(though not in Gutsy).  The problem is that when I unplug the power
supply the brightness doesn't change, i.e. it doesn't dim at all.  The
icon in the system tray changes, though when I put my mouse over it is
says:

Computer is running on AC power.  
Laptop battery 1 hour 35 minutes remaining (78%)

When the power supply is plugged in it says:

Computer is running on AC power.
Laptop batter charging (78%)

So, although it says that it is on AC power in both cases, the second
line tells you which is which, when on battery it give the estimated
time remaining.  When on AC it says the battery is charging.  So it's
just the first line that gets confused.

This problem is probably not exactly related to this particular bug.
But I wanted to give you the full account of what I'm experiencing on my
machine.  The bottom line is that your patch seems to fix this
particular bug.  When my screen dims brightness is restored to 100%
again.  Before this was not the case.  So good work!  I've also attached
a log file that details the dimming/un-dimming cycles and several
AC/Battery switches in case you are curious.

2008-06-22 Thread BandD
The patch doesn't seem to work on my system, sadly.  I get no response
when unplugging and plugging in the power cord; the screen brightness
doesn't change at all.  The screen will dim when idle, but will not
restore ANY brightness once the mouse is moved or a key is pressed.  I
can manually restore brightness, but gpm doesn't react to automatically
restore brightness in any way.

If you need any logs or other information, let me know.  I'd be happy to
help out in whatever way I can.  Your idea seems to be going to right
direction.

I tried to download the package, but I got an error when I tried to open
it with Gdebi saying that the package may be corrupted or not being
allowed to open the file.  It's not a permissions problem (I even tried
gksu gdebi-gtk).

I'd be happy to test out the script, the logic of it seems to make
sense.  But I'm not sure about how to apply the patch.  Can you give
some instructions on how to do so?

[Bug 199522] Re: Dim on idle does not brighten with activity

2008-05-21 Thread BandD
I have the same issue as pelle.k:

"Same here. Everytime it goes back up from "dim", it decreases until it hits 
some magic bottom. I've got a brightness range of 0-8. I adjust it to 7. then, 
let me illustrate;
idle > 7
dim > 4
idle > 6
dim > 4
idle > 5
dim > 4
idle > 5
dim > 4
idle > 5"

I ran a debug script and basically, when it is, boiled down it's the
same issue (full version attached for anyone interested).  After each
dim, the resulting default restore brightness is diminished one level.
I can change the brightness to value "7" again (100%) via the brightness
applet, but something in gpm is causing the 'restore' brightness level
to decrease by "1" level each dim/undim cycle.

[Bug 180087] Re: Processes tab causes GLib error

2008-05-08 Thread BandD
Maybe that it the problem then.  I pulled this icon out of an icon set I
got from gnome-look.org as is with the .svg tag.  But after looking at
the file in detail, it is indeed a .png.  So perhaps the problem is when
a file labeled as .svg is actually a .png.  Trying to open the .svg one
in image viewer doesn't work.  But if I rename it to firefox.png it
works fine.  So perhaps a mislabled icon is to blame.

[Bug 180087] Re: Processes tab causes GLib error

2008-05-06 Thread BandD
Well I was able to fix the problem AND keep my icon set, though the
average user isn't going to want to go through the hassle of this VERY
ugly fix.

It seems that the system monitor doesn't like to use .svg images as
icons; rather it likes .png images.  So to resolve this issue I had to
'hide' my firefox icon originally found in
/home/.icons/custom_set/scalable/apps/firefox.svg in a new folder I
created within that same director (named whatever you choose, I choose
"firefox".  Then I tracked down where the default firefox icons were
kept, which was in /usr/lib/firefox-3.0b5/icons/.  I think the really
important one here is mozicon128.png as /usr/share/pixmaps/firefox-3.0
is linked to mozicon128.png.  So I opened up Gimp and saved my original
firefox.svg icon as a 128px x 128px .png (and as a 16x16 and 48x48, just
to be safe as files of these sizes also exist in
/usr/lib/firefox-3.0b5/icons/) named mozicon128.png (and mozicon16.png
and mozicon50.png) to a convenient folder.  Then I replaced the files in
/usr/lib/firefox-3.0b5/icons/ with my newly created files--you need root
privileges for this.  The last thing I had to do was change the path for
my firefox panel launcher.  For this I choose my original .svg icon in
it's newly created folder in /home/.icons.../firefox/.

So now firefox and the system monitor work together in harmony.  But it
took me an hour of looking for the various icons and testing different
situations out.  If someone follows my instructions here, then they will
probably be ready to go in 15-20 minutes, maybe less.  But it is an
awful lot of work and if other icons cause similar issues then the whole
process will start over again.

So with that said, the System Monitor should be programmed to find more
suitable icons if it doesn't like the one that is set as the user's
preference.  If it comes across a .svg then if should skip it and move
on to the next directory until it finds a suitable .png file instead--as
the panel, nautilus, and all other programs do.  A .svg icon should not
keep the system monitor from running.  So I agree with Frank.

I've attached the icon causing the issue.  The original path was
/home/.icons/CURRENT ICON SET/scalable/apps/firefox.png

[Bug 180087] Re: Processes tab causes GLib error

2008-05-05 Thread BandD
I have this same exact problem with an Icon set I made by combining
icons from Crashbit and NouveXT2.2.  I had this same icon set working
fine under Gutsy.

I too think this is a bug in the gnome-system-monitor.  No other
programs crash because of icon discrepancies.  The program should be
worked to ignore or inherit different icons when it encounters something
different than it expects.  It's going to be very difficult to find the
faulty icon, and we shouldn't have to use 'standard' icons just to get
the system-monitor to work.  If all else fails, maybe the system monitor
should just force use the icons from /usr/share/icons/gnome rather than
using the user's defined icon set.  At least then the program would
work.
